Monthly Archives: July 2012

First, a note: I may not do a report next week because I will be incapacitated. I’ll do my best, but no promises.

Avery’s Oud Floris should be hitting shelves this week. It is here. It is everywhere.

Firestone Walker Double DBA was released on July 15th. This is a new brew from FW and is basically their DBA x 2. It will be distributed to Denver. Expect a shit show of people trying to get this one, just like all the FW releases. Aaaaannnnnnddd…it’s here. It’s slowly showing up around town.

Russian River/Sierra Nevada Brux, a “domesticated” wild ale, should hit us soon. It’s being distributed by Sierra Nevada (through Coors, actually), so we should see it. I have no idea when/if we will see this. Soon hopefully, I’ve been hearing pretty good things about it.

Elevation Beer Company Signal de Botrange Farmhouse Ale Aged in Chardonnay Wine Barrels is coming soon. They bottled it July 15, so it should hit soon.

Stone’s 16th Anniversary Ale, a 10% ABV double IPA, will be released on August 13th. Look for it in Denver after that.

River North released Whiskey-Aged Quandary Quadrupel at the brewery last week, but it should hit stores this week. Numbered bottles. Their barrel releases have been fantastic so far.

Look in the comments too folks, people post good nuggets of info down there too, like Stephen who says, “Bourbon Barrel Aged Angel’s Share and Mo Betta Bretta are hittin’ the streets, as well.” Also, BrewDog Dogma, Hardcore IPA and Punk IPA are in town! Moooaaaarrrr!!!!

Regarding the next two beers…well, let’s just say they never transpired this week. But there’s always next week!

Avery’s Oud Floris should be hitting shelves this week. *Should*.

Russian River/Sierra Nevada Brux, a “domesticated” wild ale, should hit us soon. It’s being distributed by Sierra Nevada, so we should see it. We might, *MIGHT*, see it this week…sources are indicating as such.

Firestone Walker Double DBA was released on July 15th. This is a new brew from FW and is basically their DBA x 2. It will be distributed to Denver, so look for it after July 15. Expect a shit show of people trying to get this one, just like all the FW releases. (UPDATE: FW is saying late July now…so we will either see it late July or early August? One source says it will make the rounds in the next 2 weeks, so hopefully this week or next week. Another closer-to-home Denver source says we might see it next week…keep thy fingers crosseth’d!)

Elevation Beer Company Signal de Botrange Farmhouse Ale Aged in Chardonnay Wine Barrels is coming soon. They bottled it July 15, so it should hit soon.

AC Golden’s Hidden Barrel Collection Kriek is hitting only one local store on July 14th. Guess which one.

Another Dogfish Head brew, Positive Contact, released June 18. This is a beer/cider hybrid that was conjured by Dan the Automator and others…should be interesting. There will also be Positive Contact box sets which will include six bottles of Positive Contact, four hip-hop dub remixes on vinyl and six recipes…for a good night o’ debauchery. (Major Update!!!! It’s here and SUPER DUPER LIMITED. I’ll arm wrestle you for it!)

(?????) Russian River/Sierra Nevada Brux (?????), a “domesticated” wild ale, should hit us soon. It’s being distributed by Sierra Nevada, so we should see it. (Update: Yeah, so…not sure about this one. A few of the beer guys around town haven’t heard a damned thing about it. Weird since every other state is getting it :/ ) (Update 2: We might, *MIGHT*, see it next week!)

Firestone Walker Double DBA will be released on July 15th. This is a new brew from FW and is basically their DBA x 2. It will be distributed to Denver, so look for it after July 15.

Elevation Beer Company Signal de Botrange Farmhouse Ale Aged in Chardonnay Wine Barrels is coming soon. I don’t have details on dates or if it will hit Denver, so if anyone has more info it would be much appreciated. (P.S. – Look in the comments…looks like they bottle it July 15. Thanks Nick!)

Stone’s 16th Anniversary Ale, a 10% ABV double IPA, will be released on August 13th. Look for it in Denver after that.

Will Avery’s Oud Floris hit the shelves soon now that it’s been released? We’ll see…but word is this week or next it will hit shelves in a very limited fashion.
